3. The Polish Heritage Festival is planning to return this summer after being canceled last year due to the pandemic.

The festival will take place at Calder Plaza. There will be music, food, drinks, entertainment, and more.

4. A crew of fishermen reeled in a record-setting salmon during a tournament this past weekend in Muskegon, weighing in at 39 pounds.

It's the heaviest fish in the history of the Muskegon Open Tournament.

The boat's captain, Nate Wellman, says the catch came in on Saturday about 10 minutes after their lines went into the water.

The team wrestled the fish for about an hour, and it took two men to lift it in the boat. Wellman thinks the fish could be one of the three largest fish ever caught on Lake Michigan.
